  • Patent number: 9787207
    Abstract: An electric machine is selectively operated as a transformer for AC voltage operation or as a throttle system for DC voltage operation. A transformer core has two limbs. An additional winding with a first additional partial winding is wound around a first limb and a second additional winding is wound around the second limb. A higher-voltage winding with a first higher-voltage partial winding is wound around the first additional partial winding and a second higher-voltage partial winding is wound around the second additional partial winding. A first traction winding is wound around the first higher-voltage partial winding and a second traction winding is wound around the second higher-voltage partial winding. A first DC voltage winding may be wound around the first traction winding and a second DC voltage winding may be wound around the second traction winding.

  • Patent number: 4603622
    Abstract: A fat frier comprising a fat container which contains fat to be heated and in which are disposed a heating means, a sieve-type or mesh-type container for the material to be fried and, beneath the fat to be heated, a layer of water, characterized in that disposed in the fat container, beneath the heating means, are cooling means which cool the fat in the region of the interface between the fat and the water.
